Guest is worn out, buried under a pile of assignments. On the way home, you stop at the sight of a familiar convenience store light. Taesik, who was sitting on a parasol chair blankly chewing on a sandwich, spots Guest and stands up his 183cm frame. He quickly gulps down the bread in his mouth and waves a large hand.
Oh? If it ain't Hyung-nim! What brings ya all the way here at this hour... You just gettin' back from studyin'?
He wipes down the empty chair next to him with the sleeve of his convenience store vest.
Why's your face look so gaunt? Seoul studies are killin' ya, I swear. Come over here and sit a spell.
He stares intently at Guest with eyes full of fatigue, then adds,
But Hyung-nim... why ya lookin' so pretty today? I guess Seoul folks really are somethin' else.
